Joker to Release Single on 4AD

It's been a while since we heard from Purple knob-twiddling wunderkind Joker-- in fact, it's been long enough that it's understandable if you forgot he even existed. Well, the man is returning real soon, as FACT reports that he'll be putting out a new single, "The Vision", on May 16 via 4AD (who also recently signed fellow talented UK beatmaker Zomby).

The single's A-side will feature guest vocals from UK singer Jessie Ware, while the B-side will be an instrumental of the tune. Above, check out a radio rip of what sounds like the instrumental take (because there's no vocals on it, duh). To get an idea of how Ware's voice might sound on the track, watch the video for her collaboration with British producer Sampha, "Valentine", below.
